Woman! Oh Woman! thou art precious!
Everywhere and anywhere
In different shapes and shades,
Nevertheless, the most unique living creature on this planet!

A Person of My People

Reflections from Summer 2018. A piece by Sandra C. Bamisile ©

Being Nigerian in Nigeria is something nearly profound. There is a comfort that creeps over my skin. It is almost suffocating how magnificent it feels to be your own person among your own people. It is almost bewildering how ecstatic I am to eat the food of my people by my people, with my people.

The Right Skin

“Many years ago, I came into a profound realization that God brought me into this world to my parents with this gender, this skin, this hair, these eyes, this mind, this physique for a reason.

It’s nothing like you have seen before. 

It’s sometimes long and for some grueling.

Throughout the trip, you can feel your heart beating a second faster than usual.

“Sometimes, we already know all the lines. Believe me, we know. 

We know that our suffering will not last for a lifetime. 

Legend Series: Maya Angelou

I am starting a new series where I expose on some grand pieces of poetry I feel the whole wide world can further appreciate in depth. I will also be looking into the lives lived or being lived by these great people.

There is therefore no more suitable piece to start the series with than the piece – Still I Rise- written by the amazing and impressive Maya Angelou who lived from (1928-2014).

Be Thankful

Be thankful for what you have.

You have got all the things that you want.

Others do not have half of what you have.

Yet, you still want to go in for what they’ve got.

Be careful never to covet what your friends have.

Thinking For Youself

“If you fail to think for yourself, it is very easy to get dragged in by another’s grandiose ideas and plans. It is obviously better to instead transform yourself into an entity so important around whom most other important things need gravitate.”

Inspiration Doze For Today

“On my own I will just create, and if it works, it works, and if it doesn’t, I’ll create something else. I don’t have any limitations on what I think I could do or be.”
